After months and months of deliberating wether or not to swap my trusty old Fazer 1000, i have finally bitten the bullet and done it.
I will be collecting an R1 next saturday. It is finished in red & white, which will match both my LC and my helmet..................
The deals that are being offered at the moment proved just too good to resist. Together with Yamaha's 0% finance deal, it worked out cheaper than selling my bike privately and buying another privately, and the R1 is a new 'un!!
Happy days for my missus too - she is well p*ss*d off with me going on about changing so is glad of the peace.
Will post some pics when it comes home.

The Fazer (awesome bike) was tucked away with the LC unless the weather changed - the only reason the swap is on is because the deal was too good to miss. I would never get the same deal in Spring. And the 0% finance from Yamaha helps it along too. It would have cost me more to sell the Fazer privately and buy a 2 year old R1 also privately. !! Madness!! Happy days |

Nice to see you have a mans bike at last hahaha. Seriously the R1 is the best overall bike iv ever had, i dont find it at all uncomfy as long as its on the move, round towns a pain but you dont buy an R1 to ride round town do you? Good choice of colours too, it looks the nuts.
